Abstract

Thermal conductive compositions, methods for their preparation, and use are provided, which include, for example, as thermal sinks, heat transfer systems, and other uses.

Claims (79)

1. A thermal conductive composition comprising a compound of Formula (I):

wherein:

A is N;

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl.

2. The thermal conductive composition of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is hydroxyl.

3. The thermal conductive composition of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is —OCN.

4. A thermal conductive composition of Formula (II):

wherein

A is N or P;

M is Al, B, Si, or In;

X is absent, alkyl, or halo; and

R 5 is —OCN.

5. A heat sink comprising a compound of Formula (I):

wherein:

A is N;

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl.

6. The heat sink of claim 5 , wherein R 1 is hydroxyl.

7. The heat sink of claim 5 , wherein R 1 is —OCN.

8. A heat transfer system or an electronic device, wherein the heat transfer system comprises:

at least one heat source;

at least one heat sink; and

at least one thermal conductive composition comprising a compound of Formula (I):

wherein:

A is N;

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl,

wherein at least a portion of the at least one thermal conductive composition is positioned substantially between the at least one heat source and the at least heat sink, and provides thermal communication between the at least one heat source and the at least one heat sink; or wherein

the electronic device is at least partially encapsulated by the at least one thermal conductive composition comprising the compound of Formula (I):

wherein:

A is N;

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl.

9. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the electronic device is encapsulated by the at least one thermal conductive composition.

10. A method of preparing a compound of Formula (I), the method comprising:

contacting

with a metal salt under conditions sufficient to produce the compound of Formula (I):

wherein:

A is N;

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is OCN or hydroxyl;

or

the method of preparing the compound of Formula (I), the method comprising:

a) contacting

with lithium and an alcohol under conditions sufficient to produce a compound of Formula (IA):

wherein A is N; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl;

and

b) contacting the compound of Formula (IA) with the metal salt under conditions sufficient to form the compound of Formula (I):

wherein:

A is N;

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl;

or

a compound of Formula (III):

wherein

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 —OCN or hydroxyl,

the method comprising: contacting

a compound of formula

wherein

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl,

with urea, the metal M, wherein M is Al, and nitrobenzene under conditions sufficient to produce the compound of Formula (III); or

metal-free phthalocyanine, the method comprising contacting a metal-phthalocyanine of Formula (III):

wherein

M is Al;

X is absent; and

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl,

with pyridine hydrochloride to form a metal-free phthalocyanine of Formula (IV):

wherein

R 1 is —OCN or hydroxyl.
